A greeting consists of saying your name, saying a greeting phrase in English or another language, and doing something physical to greet, like a handshake, fist-bump, high-five, or bowing to one another. After one student is greeted, the greeting is acknowledged: "Hello, Robert. Thanks for your greeting. My name is..."
Go around your group until each person has greeted the group.
As a group, decide on a movement, such as a fist bump, high five etc. to use when you greet each other.
